Spring camp is all but wrapped up in Gainesville ahead of Billy Napier's second season as Florida's head coach.
14 practices have been conducted with one left to go. The final workout will be held under the lights of The Swamp on Thursday, April 13, when the Gators kick off their annual Orange and Blue spring intrasquad scrimmage.
The team's final practice before the open scrimmage was conducted on Tuesday with an extended media viewing period of nearly 20 minutes. All Gators compiled a final participation report for the spring and produced a photo gallery from the workout, which you can find below.

Participation report
Below are the players that were observed wearing no-contact jerseys during the media viewing period of practice. An asterisk indicates the player participated in positional drills during the media viewing period despite their no-contact status. Quarterbacks are only noted if they did not participate in drills, as they wear no-contact jerseys traditionally.
- WR Ja'Quavion Fraziars
- WR Alex Gonzalez*
- TE Dante Zanders
- TE Jonathan Odom
- OL Jalen Farmer*
- OL Kamryn Waites
- LB Derek Wingo
- LB Kenny Anyaehie
- CB Ethan Pouncey*
- CB Devin Moore
- CB Aaron Gates
- S Dakota Mitchell*
Additionally, tight end Keon Zipperer and offensive lineman Micah Mazzccua were not witnessed at the practice facility during Tuesday's media viewing window. Both players are recovering from injuries that have ruled them out of spring participation.
Neither Odom nor Waites have been able to practice this spring while recovering from various major injuries, although both players sported no-contact jerseys and were in attendance for Tuesday's practice.
Waites observed practice while navigating the field on a scooter while nursing an Achilles wound. Odom, recovering from a knee ailment suffered in the Las Vegas Bowl in December, was seen in stretch lines before exiting the field.
This serves as the final participation report before Florida's Orange and Blue spring game on Thursday.
